Retirees Nina (Barbara Sukowa) and Madeleine (Martine Chevallier) have been secretly in love for decades. Their surroundings, including Madeleine's adult children, think they're just friends who happen to live in the apartments next to each other on the top floor. They spend their lives together, moving seamless in and out of their respective apartments. But one day their lives turn upside down by an event that leads to Madeleine’s daughter slowly realizing the truth about their relationship. Both Dagens Nyheter and Sydsvenskan gave Two of us a four out of five and film critic Annika Gustafsson at Sydsvenskan writes: “An excellent depiction of the struggle for every individual's right to love whoever she wants, regardless of gender."
